However I hesitate to that here though not so much I though it wouldn't help but because the ducts here are just foil tubes that are pretty fragile. Back in MA the ducts were metal and couldn't be damaged by the brushes used to clean them or be collapsed by the vacuum used to suck the dust out. So if I ever have it done here I'd have to be very convinced the operator know how to clean the ducts used in the Villages.
